The Bird of Politics Intrigue weaves the nest Woven fragile dust O'er a hidden lust. Nectar flows in jest Of confusion sown Where little is known. Blinded are the best Of the status quo Of the mundane flow. Promising a quest And feigning the sane While hiding inane Beguiled by the zest The sound of free and Sing along with me. We overfeed our vote. To a bird turning goat. |

Sigh. This politico poem has me pondering the need of a government...that we only think is run by the people. I was terribly upset by some of the news I heard last night, just when we think we've elected a leader, to find out that his friends are disrupting our economy... no wonder I turn the news off, and Passions on.... Well done Sir...another one of those Keepers.... |

We overfeed our vote. To a bird turning goat. ================================ Your wit, wisdom and ability to poetically hit the nail on the head just leaves me shaking my head and smiling at you  Me thinks we need to vote in POETS and make all the laws of the land rhyme  Ha...now theres a thought... politicians having to have reason for their rhyme?  Of course even Dr Suess could rhyme *L*  As always me sweet Stinky.. YOUR rhymes are right on time *ww*  |

This reminded me of the bird of paradise and I'm still looking for that fool bird! Kathleen (Kay) |

I read very little on politics, but with the way you write it I might actually understand politics some day! Thanks Sey. On the wings of words our spirits fly....and our souls are free. |
